Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of devices for protecting passengers from personal attacks inside or outside a vehicle, and in particular to a dashboard, driver's area surround, and bus. Background Technology

[0002] The driver's area enclosure, also known as the driver's guardrail, is mainly used in vehicles such as buses to separate the driver from the passengers, preventing external interference and ensuring driving safety. The driver's area enclosure has an access door on the driver's side, which is equipped with a lock to prevent unauthorized opening.

[0003] For example, a utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN210591768U and authorization announcement date of May 22, 2020, discloses a driver's seat enclosure door and a vehicle. The driver's seat enclosure door includes a front armrest tube, a rear armrest tube, and a door body. The door body is located between the front and rear armrest tubes, with its rear edge hinged to the rear armrest tube. A door lock is installed between the front edge and the front armrest tube. The front and rear armrest tubes actually constitute the door frame of the driver's seat enclosure door. The door lock used in the driver's seat enclosure door disclosed in this patent is a mechanical door lock, which has the problems of low automation and inconvenient operation.

[0004] A utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN209653670U and authorization announcement date of November 19, 2019, discloses a locking structure for a side door surrounding a driver's area. The specification specifically discloses a driver's area enclosure, which includes a side door (i.e., a door frame). The side door is equipped with a door frame, and a magnetic door lock is installed between the side door and the door frame. The magnetic door lock includes an electromagnetic lock (i.e., an electromagnetic lock body) and an attracted component. The electromagnetic lock body is located on the side door, and the attracted component is located on the door frame. However, because the electromagnetic lock body requires wiring, and the enclosure is a moving part, the wiring harness is exposed and easily worn when passing through the enclosure's pivot point. Wear and tear could lead to electrical leakage, posing a safety risk to some extent. Furthermore, the exposed wiring harness results in poor structural aesthetics and affects visual appeal.

[0005] A utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN216069906U and authorization announcement date of March 18, 2022, discloses a bus driver's guardrail structure. This guardrail structure includes a gate and a lock body. The lock body is an electromagnetic lock and is equipped with a suction block (the attracted component). In one structure, the lock body is installed on the gate, and the suction block is installed on the bus dashboard via a Z-shaped transition plate. Both ends of the Z-shaped transition plate are parallel to the closed gate, one end is fixed to the inside of the bus dashboard, and the suction block is installed on the opposite side of the gate at the other end. This structure still suffers from the aforementioned problems, such as the wiring harness being exposed when passing through the gate's pivot point. The patent specification also discloses another structure: "The lock body and the suction block are interchanged, with the lock body installed at one end of the Z-shaped transition plate and the suction block installed on the gate." While this structure avoids the wiring harness crossing between moving and fixed parts, it still requires a specially designed Z-shaped transition plate to install the lock body or suction block, resulting in a complex door lock installation structure and affecting the overall aesthetics. Furthermore, the patent does not address the wiring harness arrangement, leaving the possibility of exposed wiring, which compromises security. Utility Model Content

[0041] The features and performance of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0042] As described in the background section of this invention, existing vehicle driver's area enclosures typically use separate components for door lock installation. These components are mounted on handrails, dedicated door frames, or specialized mounting brackets on the dashboard. This necessitates the installation of the handrails, door frames, or mounting brackets before the door lock can be installed, complicating the door lock installation structure. Integrating the door lock installation structure into other necessary functional components of the vehicle, allowing for direct installation, would significantly simplify the door lock installation process. Based on this inventive concept, this invention proposes technical solutions for dashboards, driver's area enclosures, and buses.

[0043] Based on the above inventive concept, a basic implementation of the instrument panel of this utility model is as follows:

[0044] In a basic implementation, the dashboard includes a dashboard body 1. A portion of the rear side of the dashboard body 1, near the enclosure door 2 surrounding the driver's area during use, is designated as an enclosure door locking part 101. The enclosure door locking part 101 has mounting holes for mounting an electromagnetic lock body 3. The dashboard body 1 has a wiring harness arrangement space for arranging the wiring harness 4 of the electromagnetic lock body 3.

[0045] The dashboard body 1 is the main part of the dashboard, which includes structures that mainly realize the functions of the dashboard itself, such as the corresponding structures on the original dashboard of the vehicle. The function of the door locking part 101 is to cooperate with the door 2 surrounding the driver's area to lock the door. This part is derived from the dashboard body 1. Since the door 2 is generally located behind the dashboard, in order to cooperate with the door 2, the door locking part 2 needs to be located on the rear side of the dashboard body 1, close to the door surrounding the driver's area when in use. Those skilled in the art should understand that since the door 2 surrounding the driver's area is usually located in the middle of the left and right direction of the vehicle compartment, the "close to the door surrounding the driver's area when in use" is generally located in the middle position of the dashboard in the left and right direction.

[0046] The rear edge of the enclosure door 2 is mounted to other components surrounding the driver's area via a pivot 5. During operation, it rotates around the pivot 5. Since it is used to lock the enclosure door 2, the enclosure door locking part 101 must possess sufficient strength. When using plastic parts, strength can be ensured by controlling the wall thickness and adding reinforcing ribs. When using metal parts, strength can be ensured in a similar way to that used for plastic parts. Alternatively, regardless of the material used, a frame structure can be provided at the enclosure door locking part 101 to ensure sufficient strength. Furthermore, the overall shape of the enclosure door locking part 101 can be designed to provide overall strength, for example... Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the gate locking part 101 is designed as an integrally raised arched shell structure, thereby giving it higher strength.

[0047] Depending on the manufacturing process, the door locking part 101 can be integrally formed and non-detachably connected to other parts of the instrument panel body 1 (e.g., by welding) or detachably connected. Regardless of the structure, as a basic principle, the door locking part 101 should be a part of the instrument panel body 1, rather than a component additionally attached to the instrument panel body 1. In other words, if the door locking part 101 is removed, the instrument panel will no longer be complete.

[0048] The electromagnetic lock body 3 refers to the part of the electromagnetic lock that can generate magnetic attraction. It usually contains components such as coils. When the coil is energized, it can attract the attracted part 6, thereby achieving attraction between the carrier on which the electromagnetic lock body 3 is located and the carrier on which the attracted part 6 is located. Naturally, by setting the electromagnetic lock body 3 in the door locking part 101 and by setting the attracted part 6 on the door 2, when the door 2 is closed, the electromagnetic lock body 3 and the attracted part 6 can be attracted, thereby achieving locking of the door 2 towards the dashboard.

[0049] By providing a wiring harness arrangement space within the instrument panel body 1 for arranging the wiring harness 4 of the electromagnetic lock body 3, the wiring harness 4 required for the electromagnetic lock can be arranged inside the instrument panel. This allows the wiring harness 4 to connect directly to the electromagnetic lock body 3 within the mounting hole 103, thus avoiding the problems of poor security and aesthetics caused by exposed wiring harnesses. The wiring harness arrangement space can be formed using existing redundant space within the instrument panel body 1, or by creating grooves or interlayers on components such as the inner wall of the instrument panel, as long as it meets the requirements for wiring and cable capacity; its specific structural form should be unrestricted.

[0050] The instrument panel of this invention uses a portion of its main body 1 as the enclosure door locking part 101. The electromagnetic lock body 3 of the electromagnetic lock used for the enclosure door 2 surrounding the driver's area can be directly installed on the instrument panel. Therefore, before installing the electromagnetic lock body 3, there is no need to install a special mounting base on the instrument panel, thus simplifying the door lock installation structure. Furthermore, by providing mounting holes 103 on the enclosure door locking part 101 and providing a wiring harness arrangement space within the instrument panel body 1 for arranging the wiring harness 4 of the electromagnetic lock body, the wiring portion of the electromagnetic lock body 3 can be installed within the enclosure door locking part 101. This achieves the connection between the electromagnetic lock body 3 and its wiring harness 4 within the instrument panel, thereby preventing the wiring harness 4 from being exposed and thus preventing a series of problems caused by exposed wiring harness 4.

[0051] Based on the above basic implementation method, as a preferred implementation method, such as... Figure 1-3 As shown, the gate locking part 101 protrudes rearward and has a stop surface 1011 for cooperating with the gate stop, and the electromagnetic lock body 3 is disposed on the stop surface 1011.

[0052] By designing the gate locking part 101 as a rearward protruding structure, a vertical surface can be formed on its side, which constitutes the stop surface 1011. For example, when the vehicle is a left-hand drive vehicle, the right vertical surface of the rearward protruding structure will constitute the stop surface, and when the vehicle is a right-hand drive vehicle, the left vertical surface of the rearward protruding structure will constitute the stop surface. The stop surface 1011 can directly engage with the inner side of the gate 2, thereby positioning the gate 2 at its closed position. Furthermore, by setting this structure, a larger engagement surface will be formed at the engagement position between the gate 2 and the gate locking part 101, ensuring the stability of the gate 2 at that position and preventing the impact during closing from acting only on the electromagnetic lock body 3 and its location. As analyzed above, the main purpose of designing the gate locking part 101 as a rearward protruding structure is to form the stop surface 1011. Therefore, while ensuring the formation of the stop surface 1011, the cross-section of the rearward protruding structure can be arc-shaped, U-shaped, rectangular, or trapezoidal, etc., which will not be listed here.

[0053] Based on the aforementioned stop surface 1011, as a further preferred embodiment, the stop surface 1011 has a predetermined extension height in the vertical direction, causing the door locking part 101 to form the door frame pillar of the door 2. As the driver's area surround door of buses and other passenger vehicles, it often has a relatively low height. By setting the extension height of the stop surface 1011, the door locking part 101 can be directly used as the door frame pillar, eliminating the need for a separate front frame, thereby further simplifying the structure of the driver's area surround. The predetermined height can be the same as the height of the door 2, or it can be less than the height of the door, as long as it visually creates a certain travel distance to cooperate with the door, mainly relative to a "point". Of course, the predetermined height can also be greater than the height of the door 2; in this case, care should be taken to ensure the overall appearance of the dashboard.

[0054] With the stop surface 1011 provided, as a more preferred embodiment, the dashboard body 1 has a step 102 at the front edge of the stop surface for covering the front edge of the enclosure door 2. By providing this step 102, the front edge of the enclosure door 2 can be covered, resulting in a more stable closed state. It also creates a decorative effect with the enclosure door 2, leading to a better appearance. Furthermore, the height of the step 102 can be equal to the thickness of the front edge 201 of the enclosure door 2, achieving full coverage; it can be less than the thickness of the front edge 201, providing partial coverage; or it can be greater than the thickness of the front edge 201, creating a stepped decorative effect at the point of contact with the enclosure door 2.

[0055] In order to lock with the gate 2, the gate locking part 101 inevitably forms a structure that protrudes rearward relative to other parts of the dashboard body 1. Therefore, as a preferred embodiment, the gate locking part 101 is composed of a storage box that protrudes rearward from the dashboard body. This structure makes full use of the space occupied by the gate locking part 101, improving its practicality. Alternatively, the storage box can be an integral structure with the dashboard body, integrally formed with the dashboard body 1's cover, or it can be manufactured separately and installed on other parts of the dashboard body 1. In this case, the installation can be detachable or permanent. The advantage of detachable installation is that it is more convenient to install the electromagnetic lock body 3 on a smaller storage box; it is also easier to disassemble and replace the electromagnetic lock body 3 when it malfunctions; or it can be easily replaced if the gate locking part 101 is damaged due to prolonged collision with the gate 2. Detachable connection methods can be selectively achieved by screw fixing, snap-fit, or a combination thereof, which will not be listed here.

[0056] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment, the contact surface of the electromagnetic lock body 3 is flush with the outer surface of the door locking part 101. This is to ensure that the outer surfaces of the electromagnetic lock body 3 and the door locking part 101 can simultaneously mate with the inner surface of the door 2, reducing the concentration of collision stress. Furthermore, this structure can eliminate gaps at the mating positions, ensuring a good visual effect. Of course, in some other embodiments, the contact surface of the electromagnetic lock body 3 can be higher than the outer surface of the door locking part 101. Since the electromagnetic lock has a certain contact distance, the contact surface of the electromagnetic lock body 3 can also be lower than the outer surface of the door locking part 101. When the contact surface of the electromagnetic lock body 3 is flush with or lower than the outer surface of the door locking part, the mounting hole forms an embedded hole for fully embedded mounting of the electromagnetic lock body 3.

[0057] The implementation method of the driver's area enclosure of this utility model:

[0058] The driver's area enclosure of this utility model can be used in passenger vehicles, such as long-distance passenger vehicles and city buses. The driver's area enclosure includes a door and an instrument panel, wherein the instrument panel is the instrument panel of this utility model. An adsorption component adapted to the electromagnetic lock body on the instrument panel is provided on the door. The adsorption component can be any type of ferromagnetic material in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.
